The Museum offers plenty of activities you can try at home! These activities are suitable for all ages, but some may need adult supervision. They also make great activities for you to share with older family members or perhaps someone in your street who may be isolated at the moment. Have a go at making them together over a video call, or make them separately and talk about it afterwards!

Don’t forget to share what you make with us on social media – tag us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
